Dynamic Physical Therapy & Wellness was founded and is spearheaded by Peter Yeager and Elizabeth Perlstein, two Huntington residents and highly experienced physical therapists, each with over 25 years in the field. As former athletes who still lead active lifestyles, Peter's and Elizabeth's mission is to help each member of their community heal and thrive.

Peter Yeager, MS PT

After receiving his Masters in Physical Therapy from Mercy College, Peter worked as an adjunct professor at Nassau Community College's Physical Therapy Assistant program. Afterwards he worked at Glen Cove Hospital for over ten years where he was able to apply his physical therapy expertise in the treatment of a wide range of conditions, such as neurological disorders, multi-traumas, and orthopedic procedures including total joint replacements.

Peter is an avid athlete. In addition to playing college football, he was also a competitive triathlete and bodybuilder, winning the World Natural Bodybuilding Federation Championship in 2009!

He loves working with all types of athletes, from pee-wee leagues to professional teams.
